I see the Father Ryan - Knox Catholic game as a 10-14 point game. I don't know much about K.C. but I don't think that they are that much better than Father Ryan.

Hey Itzme

 

Most people picking Baylor to win over Webb much easier than you do. What is your thinking? I do think it will be tougher than many people think

Not having seen either team play this year, it's obviously just a guess on my part. My thinking, such as it is, is based on what I have read on CoachT. I did see Baylor play last season. Baylor is a bit overated at this point in my opinion, knowing what they had last year and who is returning. I don't claim any great expertise on this, however.

Quick stats for DII-AAA through 4 weeks of play:

 

> 4-0 vs. out-of-state teams (2-0 vs. MS, 1-0 vs. KY and IL)

> 4 of 7 teams undefeated (with 3-1 BA having it only loss vs. a DII-AAA team)

> 2-1 vs. preseason Top 8 I-5A teams (BA over Oakland, CBHS over Germantown, Brentwood over Ryan)

> 3-0 vs. preseason Top 6 DI-4A teams (CBHS over Melrose & Mem. East, McCallie over Knox Central)

> 1-0 vs. preseason Top 4 DI-2A teams (McCallie over Tyner)

> 1-0 vs. preseason Top 3 DI-1A teams (Baylor over BB)

 

The DII-AAA champion will have earned it when it's all said and done.

Great stats rollred!

 

I think this gives an interesting, and accurate, picture of the quality of play in II-AAA.

Nice picks Wes, it seems these days about the only way to beat a DII AAA team ( other than Father Ryan ) is to be a DII AAA team
